In 2026 the simplified procedures for critical imports (energy, medicine, defence) have been extended, but control over dual-use goods has been tightened.

What applies:

  • Fast-track customs clearance for critical imports — within 24 hours.
  • Deferral of customs payments for entrepreneurs who are internally displaced persons — up to 90 days.
  • Mandatory prior checks for electronics, software and components that may have military applications.

What to do: If your product is on the list of dual-use goods, prepare an additional explanation of the end user and the intended use.
